Most turrets on a BB. It was a great ship, and ought to be in the BB or BC line (mid level armour and slightly higher speed could be argued it would fit either potentially...) Thanks!

Agincourt had something of a poor armoring scheme, and a hull that length presents a fairly large target for enemy fire. A Queen Elizabeth would have shattered her with ease, as, likely, would a German Konig or Baden. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You will murder anything you can penetrate within your range, but those values are lower than your peers. An ambusher, basically. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

A little like the Aurora at Tier 3, it has 14 152mm guns, can absolutely murder anything that gets close, is reasonably armoured, but is as slow as a pig - gets torped all the time.

490 [VRR] sharlin648 Beta Testers 1,141 posts 3,878 battles Report post #13 Posted April 19, 2015 I'm guessing we'll see her as a Premium when the RN ships get added and will probably be viewed as the TOG II of WoWS, slow, not well armoured but a good gun. Or in this case 14 guns. She was the physical embodyment of being a turret farm, oh and don't forget her 20 x 6 inch guns as her secondaries as well :p But all that firepower and speed (22 knots) came at her being little better protected than a Lion class Battlecruiser, a 9 inch belt, it was just better laid out and she had more armour spread over her hull, but still a max belt of 9 inches, a heavy cruisers 8 inch guns could pen that at decent ranges and a BB's guns will rip through it. As Mr Awesome said, she's an ambusher in this games terms. Get you at a range where she can hurt you and simply drown you with 12 inch shells, figuring you'll be knocked out by volume of fire before you can sink her.

Now that the RN is here in force, this would be an awesome ship. Only one of its kind built. Would be really fun. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
